Flourishes Love Letters Challenge (FLLCJan13)

I've been buying up Flourishes stamp sets for quite awhile now, but have never had the time to participate in one of their challenges. I'm going to change that! One of my stamping resolutions was to make a concerted effort to USE every stamp set that I own but have never used. I counted them up...and I have 120 sets that I've never inked up! *Gulp* Yikes! So I'm going out of my way to make cards with these "dusty" sets...of course they're all so cute, which is why I bought them in the first place! LOL.

I wanted to participate in this week's release festivities, namely the Love Letters challenge, which of course is so appropriate with Valentines, etc coming up. But I also wanted to make an anniversary card for my parents, and this challenge fit that bill as well!

I pulled out a lovely but not as yet used Flourishes set, Love Sweet Love. Add to that From the Heart, and my desire to create a pop-up "kick-stand" card, and voila!

This is beautiful Rachel! I love the pairing of the basket with the woodcut heart, and the soft palette! So pretty! Very fun to see you use your FLLC sets! Good luck on your quest :) Thanks so much for playing along iwth us this month!

About Me

I love all things creative & crafty, not just paper anymore! Paper crafting has caused me to branch out into making things besides cards such as hand-stiched felt gift items and other goodies. I work part-time as a merchandiser in a few craft stores, which is very dangerous for me! Lots of ideas, lots of inspiration, but never enough time! I really enjoy making special things to give away or sell. I haven't had enough time to do much with my blog in the last year or so, but hopefully that will change someday soon.
